(c)As promptly as practicable following the execution of this Agreement, the Company shall convene and hold a general shareholders meeting to approve the necessary amendments to the Company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association (“Memorandum & Articles”) to increase the size of the Company’s Board of Directors to eleven (11) members and to give effect to the rights granted to the Purchasers in Section 4.06(a) and Section 4.06(b), contingent on the Closing, in the form and substance substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex A.

Section 4.07.Rights Offering. As promptly as practicable following the execution of this Agreement, the Company shall undertake a rights offering (the “Rights Offering”) pursuant to which the existing shareholders of the Company will have the right to acquire one newly issued Common Share for every six (6) Common Shares owned by such shareholders as of a record date to be set by the Company (the “Rights”) for a price equivalent to the Purchase Price (which, when used in the context of the Rights Offering, shall be referred to as the “Rights Offering Price”). To the extent that the Rights of any Minority Shareholder to acquire newly issued Common Shares are not exercised by such Minority Shareholder prior to the expiration date of the Rights Offering (such date being the “Expiration Date” and the number of such Common Shares that would have been issued to such Minority Shareholders pursuant to those Rights hereafter referred to as the “Number of Shortfall Common Shares”), the Company shall notify (the “Notification”) the Purchasers in writing (the “Shortfall Notification”) as promptly as practicable and in any event within one (1) Business Day following the Expiration Date, informing the Number of Shortfall Common Shares, and the Purchasers shall have the right, but not the obligation, to acquire from the Company on the Closing Date (in addition to the purchase of Base Securities by the Purchasers and sale of Base Securities by the Company contemplated by Section 2.01(a)(i) hereunder), for the Rights Offering Price per Common Share, all or a portion of the Number of Shortfall Common Shares up to a maximum amount in U.S. dollars equivalent to R$100 million less the total amount subscribed in the Rights Offering by Minority Shareholders (the “Rights Offering Option”). In the event that any such Purchaser elects to acquire Common Shares under the Rights Offering Option (such Common Shares elected to be acquired by the Purchasers, the “Additional Securities”) and such Purchaser notifies the

23

Company in writing of such election (the “Exercise Notification”) no later than two (2) Business Day following the date of the Shortfall Notification, the Company hereby agrees to issue to such Purchaser on the Closing Date such Additional Securities for the Rights Offering Price per Common Share. If the Company does not receive the Exercise Notification within the time period prescribed in the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall not be required to issue Additional Securities to such Purchaser. In the event that more than one Purchaser elects to acquire Common Shares under the Rights Offering Option, such Purchasers shall be entitled to allocate among themselves the Additional Securities that each Purchaser will agree to purchase pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

Section 4.08.Registration Rights Agreement. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to procure that Carlyle, SPX, Vinci and NB (the “Investors”) execute an amendment to the Registration Rights Agreement, contingent on the Closing, following the execution of this Agreement, and in any event on or prior to the Closing Date, in order to include the Purchasers as parties thereto in their capacity as Principal Investors (as such term is defined and used in the Registration Rights Agreement), such amendment to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Purchasers (the “Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement”).

Section 4.09.Voting and Support Agreement. The Company (i) shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to procure that the Voting and Support Agreement be executed by all parties thereto following the execution of this Agreement and in any event on or prior to October 18, 2022, and (ii) agrees that the Voting and Support Agreement shall be in full force and effect from the date on which it is executed until the Closing Date, and that it shall not be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified by the Company and the parties thereto without the prior written consent of the Purchasers.

(a)This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York. In addition, each of the parties hereto irrevocably agrees that any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising hereunder, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect of this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising hereunder brought by the other party hereto or its successors or assigns, shall be brought and determined exclusively in the New York Supreme Court and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of New York (or, solely if the New York Supreme Court declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of New York).

otherwise, in any action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement, (i) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above named courts for any reason other than the failure to serve in accordance with this Section 5.06(a), (ii) any claim that it or its property is exempt or immune from the jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (iii) to the fullest extent permitted by the applicable law, any claim that (A) the suit, action or proceeding in such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (B) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper or (C) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts. Each of the parties hereby agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to the respective addresses set forth in Section 5.02 shall be effective service of process for any suit or proceeding in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 5.07.Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect provided that the economic and legal substance of, any of the Transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. In the event of any such determination, the parties agree to negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement to fulfill as closely as possible the original intent and purpose hereof. To the extent permitted by law, the parties hereby to the same extent waive any provision of law that renders any provision hereof prohibited or unenforceable in any respect.

Section 5.08.Specific Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, each party agrees that in the event of any breach or threatened breach by any other party of any covenant or obligation contained in this Agreement, the non-breaching party shall be entitled (in addition to any other remedy that may be available to it, whether in law or equity) to obtain (i) a decree or order of specific performance to enforce the observance and performance of such covenant or obligation, and (ii) an injunction restraining such breach or threatened breach. Each of the parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that any other party has an adequate remedy at law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity. Any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.
